“Listen
Without knowing it, we have lived with other sentient beings
They nurtured us, sheltered us, fed us and warmed us.
But in our ignorance we used them and abused them
Until we heard their music and gave them a voice
We are one tribe
When we breathe out, they breathe in
When they breathe out, we breathe in
We share their origins
We even share their DNA
Knowing this now, we have to reverse our roles
It’s time to protect them, shelter them
And in doing so, save ourselves
WE ARE TALKING TREES
And by giving trees a voice
We can share their plight with everyone
So listen up
There is still hope for the trees
There is music in their message
We need more trees
So add your voice to the forest
Help us to plant more trees
And together we will turn their melody into a world of harmony.”
